Key benefits of high-speed doors for internal staff

In professional environments such as supermarkets, laboratories or logistics centres, the design of access points has a direct impact on the daily routine of staff. In addition to facilitating the passage of goods and ensuring their specific conditions, high-speed doors play a key role in the safety, comfort and productivity of teams.

Ferroflex high-speed doors are designed to optimise processes while focusing on the people who work in these environments daily. Our comprehensive range of doors adapts to various spaces and sectors, offering solutions that improve working conditions and promote safer, more efficient operations.

Benefits of high-speed doors for staff

The installation of high-speed doors provides significant benefits for workers who interact with them daily, regardless of the working environment. Below, we outline the main benefits that improve working conditions for internal staff:

● Greater workplace safety: They incorporate obstacle detection, automatic stop and signalling systems, minimising the risk of accidents in heavy-traffic areas. Some models, such as those for ATEX areas, automated production lines or the self-repairing high-speed door, are designed to provide special protection in specific environments.

Greater fluidity of movement: The high opening and closing speed avoids unnecessary waiting times, facilitating the continuous passage of employees, forklifts or pallet trucks, especially in high-traffic areas.
Reduced physical effort: Being automatic, high-speed doors eliminate the need for repetitive manual manoeuvres, reducing fatigue and improving ergonomics during the working day.
More comfortable working environments: The division between areas helps to maintain stable thermal conditions, preventing draughts, sudden changes in temperature or prolonged exposure to cold or heat.
Lower ambient noise level: Their fast and quiet operation contributes to a more pleasant working environment, especially in enclosed spaces such as laboratories or preparation areas.

Main advantages by sector

In addition to the general benefits, Ferroflex solutions also take into account the specific needs of different sectors. This means that high-speed doors can be adapted to the type of traffic, load volume, sealing conditions, etc.

Industry

Employee safety is a priority in industrial environments. In these spaces, the pace of work is fast, and the risks can be greater because workers and machinery coexist. Our high-speed industrial doors are characterised by:

● Sectorising and dividing different areas according to the environmental conditions required by the space.

● Safety systems to facilitate the movement of people, machines and goods, preventing potential incidents.

● Presence and obstacle detection sensors, which prevent the door from closing if there are people or objects in its path.

● Emergency stop systems to immediately interrupt operation in the event of any risk.

Laboratories and clean rooms

These spaces require a strictly controlled environment to guarantee processes and the proper preservation of products such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, biological samples, electronic components, food, etc. The high-speed door for laboratories and clean rooms stands out for its:

● Class 5 air permeability according to the UNE-EN H12426:2000 standard.

● Environmental control and sectorisation between controlled environment areas.

● Reduced risk of cross-contamination.

Logistics centres

Logistics centres must maintain a constant flow of goods, ensure product preservation and traceability. For people working in these environments, high-speed doors help to maintain:

● A continuous and smooth flow of goods without interruptions, thanks to rail systems that allow the door to repair itself in the event of an impact.

● Greater safety in areas with machinery traffic.

● More stable working conditions in storage chambers or refrigerated areas.

Ferroflex high-speed doors not only optimise internal warehouse operations but also contribute to the well-being of the employees who work in these environments every day.
